2016 reading year finally under way

2015 proved to be extremely busy, it leaned so heavily on
the busy side that it stretched thin my energy, motivation and inspiration. Sadly,
2016 wasn’t up for a good start either. Actually, if I had any quarrels with
the past year I didn’t anticipate the beginning of the new one. Still, it also
brought revitalization, dealing with some difficult situations I regained the
great pleasure of sitting down and settle on a reading, the desire of talking
about all the good books and the authors who write them. Not that I lost this
passion, but I discovered that for the past several months it dwindled. So,
although the first month of this new year didn’t bring many reasons for
optimism I find myself ready to talk again about the great world of speculative
fiction. I don’t have any specific goals in mind, for the time being I just
wish to set the wheels in motion again and detect where this path leads me. I
hope you had an excellent start of the year though and will see each other
around here as much as possible.

Michael, actually it is more on the personal level, but reading helped a bit. But I guess that's life and I am sure I'll manage it in the end.

Bob, thank you very much. It is good to be back. I believe that for me goals would become a burden at this point so I'll move along and hope for the best. Although I did rediscover the pleasure of talking about books.
